I think one has to keep appreciating children's efforts no matter they did as you expected or not. Sometimes, we lose cool, and snub and tell them that this was supposed to be done the other way. I think, we can teach the children anytime but at the particular moment when he/she has finished doing something, and comes to show you, you must highlight positive things. Getting better is always an open possibility. Also, the most important thing to boost a child's confidence is to also let him understand failure and how to deal with it. Like, my youngest daughter is so high on confidence when she does something right, but when she is stuck somewhere, she doesn't know how to deal with it. She is not able to cope up with failure. Since, I can see a very confident child shattering in a fraction of second when something doesn't work, I feel that the understanding of how to take failure too in your stride is also a part of confidence building process. https://www.care.com/c/stories/3299/7-ways-to-boost-kids-confidence/ http://kidshealth.org/en/parents/confidence.html
In order to boost his confidence, you should have him take part in competitions & contests. Competitions make sure your that your child grows into a confident personality, all because he gets to interact with others & widen his knowledge. To begin with, you can look at various parent-child activities. I have recently come across a parent-child quiz that you might be interested in. It's call Dell Champs, and there's a Rs.1 Lakh scholarship up for grabs. You might want to have a look at it: http://bit.ly/2bbcqn0 Hope it helps!
Encourage him always. If he tries and fails, motivate him and never criticize. Tell him not to be afraid to take chances, to participate in every event, take victory and defeat sportingly. Always speak positive words..

The two main pillars to boost their confidence are - Encouragement and Appreciation. Encourage them to try new activities, an when they do, appreciate their effort.
Keep encouraging them when they perform well and do not discourage them when there's a failure, motivate them to come back much stronger.
